One of the main principles of the smartphone and tablet operating systems is simplicity and accessibility. This feature was usually not available on the embedded systems and devices. By connecting these two types of devices, user interface and accessibility can be simplified. A myriad of new possibilities can be added to the embedded systems while giving smartphone and tablet users control over the...
A novel derivative-free algorithm for solving quasi-linear systems is presented. It resembles “classical” optimization approach but greatly simplifies computation, resulting in fast execution and numerical stability. Though the global convergence cannot be guaranteed, it turns out that the presented algorithm finds a solution as successfully as other commonly accepted methods. The algorithm is clearly...
Reconfigurable processors combine the speed of application specific integrated circuits (ASIC) and the universality of classical digital processors by means of adaptability to the currently executed code. There is a great number of varieties in today's reconfigurable processor architectures. Processor architectures can be specified in many ways. Architecture specifications are usually used during...
In this paper two different methods for non-technical losses (NTL) detection are analyzed and new approach is proposed, based on the noticed drawbacks. It is shown that NTL can be successfully detected by a neural network trained by “artificial”, i.e., generated samples. This approach eliminates the need for many hard-to-obtain real life samples and the network can easily be trained to detect some...
Fischer plots are plots of accommodation (derived by calculating cumulative departure from mean cycle thickness) versus cycle number or stratigraphic distance (proxies for time), for cyclic carbonate platforms. Although many workers have derived programs to do this, there are currently no published, easily accessible programs that utilize Excel. In this paper, we present an Excel-based spreadsheet...
